Game, 3D & Coding
Secret Project (Prototype, WIP):
​
No Ordinary Sun - Unreal Engine 5.6
A "penguin-sledder" prototype. Snowboard-esque movement mechanics, authoritarian bipedal birds and ominous vibes.
​
This solo-developed, 3D "vertical game slice" showcases my extensive experience in Unreal Engine 5's pipelines and functionality, from character creation, level design, state-machine-based animation, blueprint-based coding, 3D modelling and geometry node systems, PBR texturing workflows, world-space texturing, procedural content generation systems, kit-bashing and more.

Showcase Video:
Hoot - Unreal Engine 5.5
Space invaders for owls. First Unreal Engine project. An experiment with pre-rendered 2D sprites using a pixel-art shader and a dark, moonlit bruise-punk aesthetic. Levels generated randomly by spawning environment sprites upon one another.
CyberDoof - DoofDuck & Friends - DJs in Space
Blender Geometry Nodes - MagicaVoxel pipeline.​
Created a bunch of 3D flora and fungal voxel assets for use in constructing levels for CyberDoof's 3rd public event.

Grains: Succession II - Falling Sand Music Visualiser (Java p5)

University Java p5 Creative Coding Project.
​
Falling sand simulations, like similar cellular automata, function by creating a two dimensional array of co-ordinate locations representing the screen space, and applying a for loop to scan through the array (from bottom to top) and determine the behaviour of each cell based on a set of simple rules. A cell can be empty (value = 0), or filled (value < 0), and different values can be tied to different behaviours (Custom sands).
​
This simulation also has sand behaviours mapped to music-driven values. The music data was extracted using a machine learning algorithm, and these values drive things such as sand spawn rate, sand spawn type, plant growth and more.
​
The music is Grains: Succession II, a track that explores the cohesion and conflict between humanity and the natural world. As the track progresses, different paradigms of the simulation emerge. The end is fire.
